Plan B for Miley girl - she is gone now...RIP Sweetheart

[sasvermont]

The vet's office is closed today.

I went out and bought longer, and lower litter boxes with regular litter in them. I plan to cover the entire floor of the cage with the boxes. Right now there is only one box in the cage. I don't know if this will help, as she is "going" on the ramps and the other levels of the cage, just not on her sleeping blanket.

I will rethink this mess over the weekend and call the vet on Monday, assuming their office will be open then.

Thanks for listening.



P. S. The fact that Miley has tested positive for FIP, makes treatment even trickier........Catty1, I have emailed Nancy. You are right. What the heck is another $30! Thanks for the suggestions folks.

Oh SAS... I'm so sorry Miley is not well and causing so much stress.

If Miley has been "read" by Nancy before, she won't charge you for reading Miley again.

I'm so sorry that she's not improving. I know that you're probably very tired of paying vet bills and not receiving the results that you would like. I feel your frustration because I've been going through a much similar situation with Starr.

I finally decided to take him to a holistic vet. Yes, she is expensive but so far it's been worth every penny. He has to be on a grain free diet which he's been on for a while but it's just not enough for him even with the pred. He's now on 3 different types of herbal supplements that I just mix in with his wet food and he loves it. I should notice an improvement in 7-10 days. The first day I gave him too much wet food so this caused him to have some diarrhea so I added some dry to it and spaced out his supplement mixture and today he's been fine. I can also tell that he's been feeling much better. I hope to be able to eventually wean him off the pred and all of the supplements too.

Here's a link if you'd be interested in finding a local holisitic vet : American Holisitic Vet Search. Here's another link that may also help: Vet Locator. I searched these by typing in the words holistic vet list. I hope that something will be able to help poor Miley. Good luck.
